1 " I want to give you my all, but I can't, because it doesn't belong to you. My body may crave your touch and I may want to give you mine, but that's not love, even if it seems like it at the time. True love always wants the best for each other, and although you may not agree, the best is only available through the hand of God. ... Which means, if you want a relationship with me, we'll be doing things God's way, not ours. "
― Julie Lessman , A Love Surrendered (Winds of Change, #3)
2 " Good men who believe in God, certainly, and that he sent his Son to save them, but no real passion for it. A sort of long-distance relationship comprised of church once a week and grace at dinner. But ... the good news is, all that can change if a man really loves a woman, which is what happened with Sean. Emma's faith ignited his, and to be honest, Annie, that's what I've been praying for with you and Steven. You have the kind of faith to set Steven's on fire, but it's going to require adherence to God's precepts to do it, which is another reason you have to be strong. "
3 " But the truth is, real love denies self to give those we love God's best. So I said no to Collin and yes to God, and I truly believe that's why our marriage is so wonderful today. Because the Bible is clear - God honors those who honor him. "
4 " Well now, that's the beauty of it. ... You put your faith in him instead of yourself, because without him, we can't be trusted to do the right thing. But with him? ... We can scale mountains. "
